Employee of the Day | Meter Maid Madness
Because you, Feed readers, found of Employee of the Week so deliciously fun, we're expanding. We're going to post an Employee of the Day every day of the week. Then, on Friday, you'll vote for the Employee of the Week and that person will be enshrined in our prestigious Hall of Fame. Also, please note: the EOTD need not be an employee of the U.S. government. It's open to everybody. We missed Monday because we just came up with the idea last night. Here's today's winner:
A city traffic agent has been charged with writing dozens of fraudulent parking tickets sometimes while sitting in her car miles away from the bogus violations she cited, prosecutors said Tuesday.
Nivea Cloud was accused of writing 27 tickets in three hours in seven locations on May 12, inventing infractions just one to four minutes apart in the same place, Queens District Attorney Richard Brown said.
She was seen sitting in her police car, parked in a handicapped spot, more than a mile away from where the vehicles cited on her tickets supposedly were illegally parked, Brown said.
"As a municipal worker entrusted with such enormous financial powers over motorists and a duty and responsibility to uphold the law, the defendant's alleged conduct is outrageous," Brown said in a news release announcing the charges.
Cloud, 30, was arraigned Tuesday on charges including official misconduct and falsifying business records. She could face up to four years in prison if convicted.
